Wallace Wood (w & a & c)
Wally Wood is one of the most celebrated comic artists of all time.
His legendary career runs from the glory days of EC Comics’
extraordinary line of science fiction titles to the brilliantly
subversive Mad Comics (and, later, Mad Magazine). He produced
extraordinary illustrations for magazines like Galaxy after EC
folded, and worked on the some of the most fondly remembered
stories published by Marvel Comics in the mid 1960s. He also
co-created the Thunder Agents and was a pioneer in self-publishing.
This massive tome is the American edition of a museum catalogue
that accompanied a gigantic career retrospective on display in De
Palma, Spain in 2010, the largest such exhibit ever devoted to this
incredible artist.

Gasoline Alley, Vol.
1
Frank King & Dick Moores (w & a & c)
The year 1964 was a momentous one in the history of Gasoline
Alley—it's when Frank King officially handed the baton to
Dick Moores. King continued to help plot the strip but it's Moores
who takes center stage. More so than any other newspaper strip,
Gasoline Alley is renowned for its strict continuity and this is
our chance to see Moores—who continued writing and drawing
the strip until 1986—make it his own. Forty-plus years
earlier, Walt Wallet found baby Skeezix in a basket on his doorstep
and in the 1964-1966 strips reproduced in this volume, Skeezix is
now middle-aged and has a family of his own. For the first time
since they appeared in newspapers fifty years ago, readers can
enjoy these classic strips featuring Walt and his wife Phyllis,
Skeezix and his wife Nina, Corky, Clovia, Slim, Avery, Mr. Pert,
Joel, Rufus, and a whole cast of familiar characters.
